I'm at around 500hp for years on my 08 xkr with minimal mods and many customers with similar setups..

Then what the heck man? If you simply didnt like the price leave it at that. No need to make it seem like he tried to eff you with statements. I think this thread got off to a silly start. But now its just plain ole off the rails.

You are way off base. This has nothing to do with pricing. Might I add that you asked the question and I replied.
